As photographers there are times when we can fill weeks on our blog sites with wedding after wedding, or weeks of newborn and Headshot sessions, but then there is that time when we ask ourselves, What am I going blog about now?
I still struggle with this very same issue, but I’ve developed a strategy for dealing with this I write a mix of business related and personal postings.
Business related postings include:
- blogging favorites from every shoot,
- client products (whether its a 5×7 image box, 30×40 canvas, or mini album or something as simple as a linen textured print, I try to photograph the product because after all that is why clients book sessions for the printed product. )
- Networking or Conferences I attend, etc.
My personal blogging mostly focuses on my life and what I’ve been up to and frequently features my two kids Madeline and Cristian (The MadCris Team as I refer to them) along with recommendations for various things – recipes, books and movies, etc. and I’ve found that these have been very popular. I really enjoy home decor and over the last year have I have partner with a few professional organizers and designers who have been featured on my site as well. My kids are getting older and I think its about time to reclaim my space! These post have been a huge help for me and have inspired me to shoot more outside of my comfort zone.
